Rig Security

Rig Security refers to the protection of oil and gas drilling operations and infrastructure from cyber threats and physical attacks. For enterprises operating in the energy sector, this matters because successful attacks on rigs can disrupt production, endanger worker safety, contaminate the environment, and trigger significant financial and regulatory penalties. As industrial operations increasingly rely on connected sensors, remote monitoring systems, and automated controls, governance teams must ensure that AI-driven analytics and decision-making systems used on rigs meet industry standards for safety, resilience, and breach response.

AI Agents Running as Users: Rig Security's $12M Launch Exposes an Identity Control Gap

Rig Security has launched from stealth with $12 million in seed funding to address a gap created by AI agents that act under human user permissions. Its platform distinguishes between legitimate human actions and agent actions at runtime, enabling targeted blocking without disrupting the underlying account. The launch highlights a structural control weakness that governance teams have not yet closed.
